"November 13 2025 I hired Elite & Elevated Construction & Excavation to complete excavation, footings, and foundation work for a large project I was working on. I invested about $55,000 in the project, and I couldn?t be happier with the results. The job was completed perfectly and on time, even though the weather conditions were terrible. We had snow, rain, and freezing temperatures, but nothing stopped Mario and his crew. They showed up every day, worked efficiently, and stayed committed to getting the job done right and fast. I truly appreciate their dedication because I needed the work completed quickly, and despite the weather challenges, they delivered exactly what they promised. Professional, reliable, and hardworking team. I would definitely recommend Elite & Elevated Construction & Excavation, and I will absolutely hire them again to install my concrete driveway in the future"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.

The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.
